Six More Miles Here we are with yet one more too hard good-bye Another day I hold onto you desperately by my side Every breath that I am breathing seems harder every time And, to myself I pray for strength some that I can call mine... Just six more miles ahead and then God how the storms come in How sorry we have to let each other go over and over again And, not even a tear for you to see I somehow let you go All I am, all I love, It's you and all you need to know... In my mind I picture us and everything I love about you How quickly memories become the hopeless way to ever make it through Now, on my way back and beneath the moon overhead I asked once again if he's heard every word I've said... Cause it's six more miles, God, I don't want to be alone I can't go back to what I can't call home And, so I'll drive this day to an unknown place And, let the highway give light now to the tears on my face... You can never hear the lonely I hear every day Cause I lost all meaning when you went away Six more miles takes my heart and all I ever believed I carry the sadness on this rainy highway with just the radio and me... Just let me find her now here in the night at last Let me hold her, God, Don't take her back The six miles doesn't end just where the sign is gone Cause, Baby, the rain and this highway it still lives on... Saun Sauni :) |

http://netpoets.net/img/ms02.gif Hey nice poem, it seems like GOD took my dad early he was only 56 he died of colon cancer. Sometimes I dream of him, the doctors didn't know if I could live the 1st night. My dad said "yes she can" the day be4 he died he cried and looked at me and said "yes she can". Here's a quote "Live your life the fullest, and then when you die you'll have people crying around you because they still care about you". I'm only 17 but I know my "stuff" Keep smiling your baby is watching over you   |

Saun..... I cry with you, as I do with Fairy Princess. The pain of losing those dear to us, is a lasting one, but hurts less when we share it. I have a son who has been missing for 15 years. Thank you for writing this.. I know it wasn't easy... ~~~~~Live for Today~~~~~ taste every single moment |
